NJ State AFL-CIO E-Activist Network

Greetings,

Throughout New Jersey's gubernatorial campaign, we have worked hard to provide you with a clear picture of the candidates and where they stand on the issues most important to New Jersey's retirees.

Governor Jon Corzine is the only candidate who will continue to build on his record and fight for New Jersey's seniors through programs that make a real difference in seniors' lives everyday. 

Governor Jon Corzine:

  • Made it possible for more seniors to stay in their homes through the "Senior Freeze" property tax relief program and by expanding state rental assistance money for low-income seniors.  He even expanded long-term care initiatives so seniors who need medical assistance can remain in their homes.
  • Helped seniors save money on home energy and heating by expanding energy assistance programs.
  • Helped seniors stay healthy by providing easier access to prescription drug benefits and providing additional funding for nutrition programs.

Governor Corzine has already proven that he will "Fight for You."  Christie says "Fend for Yourself."  The choice is clear.  Governor Jon Corzine is the only candidate seniors can rely on to do the right thing. 

We urge you to vote for Governor Jon Corzine this Tuesday, November 3, 2009, and we urge you to tell your friends, family and neighbors to do the same.

Sincerely,

Charles Wowkanech, President
Laurel Brennan, Secretary-Treasurer
